GLOVE.

Application led October 22, 1921. Serial No. 509,637.

To ZZ whom t may oon-oem:

Be it known that l, Vesnn VINCIN, a citi- Zen of the United States, residing at Humble, in the county of Harris and State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvement in Gloves, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to new and useful improvements in gloves.

One object of the invention is to provide a glove without a seam between the thumb and first finger.

Another object is to provide a glove whose thumb, first nger and the palm and front part of the other ngers are all formed of a single piece of material, thus having few seams to rip and adding durability to the glove.

Vith the above and other objects in view this invention has particular relation to certain novel features of construction, and use, an example of which is given in this speer fication and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein- Figure l shows a palm view of the glove,

Figure 2 shows a back view.

Figure 3 shows a pattern on which the part of the glove forming the palm, thumb and first finger is cut, showing, in dotted lines where the material is to be slitted in the formation of the other three fingers, and Figure 4i shows said pattern folded preparatory to stretching the thumb into form.

Referring more particularly to the drawings, the numeral l designates the palm of the glove. rlhe material of which the palm is made is extended forming the entire thumb 2, and first finger.

The material of the thumb is sewed along the outside opposite the crotch forming a seam which continues along said outside to the wrist of the glove and the seam of the first linger is along the side toward the second finger so that there will be no seam between the thumb and adjacent finger. This is the point where the material is sub jected to the greatest strain and a seam between the thumb and first linger soon rips,

particularly in the case of workmens gloves. In manufacture the material of which the palm, thumband first finger of the glove is made is softened by soaking' in water and then formed as shown in Figure l and then stretched to give the material of the thumb the proper shape. The back parts of the second third and fourth fingers are formed of the separate strips 4l, 5 and 6 which are sewed in place along the sides of said fingers. All of the rest of the hand part of the glove is formed of a single piece of material cut in the form of the patterns shown in Figures 3 and 4.

What I claim is l. A glove whose palm, thumb, first nger and the front part of the other fingers are formed of a single piece of material, and the backs of all of the fingers, excepting the first finger are formed of separate strips of material, the material between the thumb and first finger being formed into a crotch, and the edges of the thumb material being sewed togetherforming a seam along the outside of the thumb to the wrist of the glove.

2. A glove, the material of the palm of P' which is extended forming the entire thumb and the entire first linger, and the front part of the other fingers, the material of which the first linger is formed being sewed along the side next tothe second finger, there being no seam between the thumb and first finger, said material between the thumb and iii-st finger being stretched to form a Crotch of the contour of a corresponding part of the hand of the wearer, the material of the thumb being sewed along the side thereof opposite the crotch forming a seam along said side to the wrist of the glove.

ln testimony whereof l have signed inf." name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
